"You guys sure are creeping me out," Rain frowned. "Referring to me as human in your head is something, but saying it out loud sure is weird."
Rain couldn't help but see through the obvious taunts of the tribe leaders. Their provocations seemed designed to incite him into violence and, in turn, provoke their troops. It was a clear strategy to make the magic people act with rage and brutality, even if they had to die for that. Hoping to tip the scales in the favor of the magic people.
The tribe leaders might have been willing to sacrifice themselves as martyrs, believing that their deaths would serve as a catalyst, causing the humans to regret their choices and potentially driving the magic people to revert to a more primal, aggressive way of life. It was a desperate but calculated move on their part, and Rain was determined not to fall into their trap.
"If you guys want to fight, it is fine," Rain said. "Still, you should at least explain why you want to fight. Did something happen after the martial artists were annihilated?"
The aura of the tribe leaders changed when they heard that question... It seemed that Rain had stopped on a landmine. They clenched their teeth and fists, and their aura began to vibrate thanks to their anger.
"Die! Die!"
One of the tribe leaders pointed his hands at Rain and then fired a simple and thin beam of heat toward Rain's head, but he blocked it with his forearm guards. In the next moment, his feet began to sink since quicksand appeared under his feet.
Fire tornadoes emerged from the sides, and water spears were fired toward Rain while ten-meter-tall golems were slowly emerging from the sides... it seems that negotiations are over.
The Polymath Path received 330 experience points.
...
"It isn't that good yet... that another spear was two times faster... way above mach ten," Rain thought. "Still, I guess I am on the right path. I focused for the same amount of time, after all."
If that earth spear was the enemy's best attack and they were a mage, then their level wasn't insane... it was way above anything that Rain had seen, but it wasn't impossible to deal with.
The magic people began to hastily retreat again while he also summoned some earth walls to block Rain's field of vision... they were so naive of thinking that such a thing would be enough to stop him... knocking down structures like that would be easy as... Rain couldn't think of any right comparison.
In any case, before Rain could attack the walls, he suddenly saw some soldiers approaching from the left side in a hurry. It seemed that the magic people already sent some of their soldiers to try to chase the people evacuating.
"Sir, there are some of the enemies approaching from the side."
"You won't... I am going to check it," Rain said.
Rain almost said you wouldn't call me sir, but that sounded very weird, so he stopped in the end. Regardless, he couldn't help but frown when he reached the other side of the wall and saw a group of the magic people approaching... they didn't seem like they wanted to fight, and Rain recognized two people there... Geo and the woman who brainwashed his father.
"Is this a trap?" Rain frowned.
From a distance, Rain could see that they were wounded, and he couldn't see any magic being active on them either... the woman was moving with the help of Geo, and she had a bloodstained piece of cloth covering her eyes...
